About ProtoPie

ProtoPie is a prototyping tool for designers who need interactions that feel like the finished product. You import designs from Figma, Sketch or Adobe XD and then add triggers and responses: drags, scrolls, voice, device sensors such as tilt and compass, variables, conditions and formulas, all without code. Prototypes run on real phones through the ProtoPie Player app, and ProtoPie Connect links prototypes to hardware, Arduino and other apps, which is why automotive, smart-device and game teams use it for in-car and multi-screen interfaces. It is overkill for basic click-throughs that Figma already handles, and its pricing is higher than general design tools. A free plan allows a couple of cloud prototypes; Basic and Pro plans are billed monthly or annually, with Enterprise options and add-ons for Connect. The editor runs on macOS and Windows, with players for iOS and Android.

Best for: Interaction designers who need realistic prototypes with sensors, logic or hardware.
